<br>Something I've used is Adobe's Version Cue (<a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/versioncue.html">http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/versioncue.html</a>), it won't help us as it only works with Adobe software eg Photoshop ($$$$$$), but I think it's closer to what we need. Thats my idea of kind thing we need.
